IRC comment from upstream on #nm in case it's useful

'not that `nmcli device disconnect $DEV` and `nmcli connection down $PROFILE` do not set the interface down (like `ip link set $IF down`). Instead, the ~logically~ disconnect the interface, which essentially means that `nmcli device` reports that the device is disconnected and that there is no IP configuration on the device.

asserting that the interface is down, may just check the wrong thing.'
